| Microsoft® JScript® getUTCFullYear Method |
Language Reference Version 3 |
Description
Returns the year value in a Date object using Universal Coordinated Time (UTC).
Syntax
objDate.getUTCFullYear()
Remarks
To get the year using local time, use the getFullYear method.The getUTCFullYear method returns the year as an absolute number. This avoids the classic year 2000 problem where dates beginning with January 1, 2000 are confused with those beginning January 1, 1900.
The following example illustrates the use of the getUTCFullYear method:
function UTCDateDemo() { var d, s = "Today's UTC date is: "; d = new Date(); s += (d.getUTCMonth() + 1) + "/"; s += d.getUTCDate() + "/"; s += d.getUTCFullYear(); return(s); }
